While on medication, he described the alleged monitoring as an unpleasant, but not unbearable aspect of working in a highly classified environment. He did continue to believe that he was being watched, however. Within a month of his intake, Jack was on antipsychotic medication and said he no longer felt so tormented. government spends a mind-blowing amount of money on the development of technology and weaponry designed to protect our country and put us ahead in “the game.” Maybe Jack and other inventors like him really were being monitored, to ensure they weren’t leaking secrets or working for the “other side.” Still, where did the facts end and the fantasies begin? Did he really work on technology that was sensitive enough to warrant the government’s attention? I assumed, as most of us would, that Jack’s belief that he was under surveillance was a delusion, as was the “government official” whistleblower who supposedly exposed the secret.

But it didn’t take a keen professional eye to see that Jack was dealing with more than alcohol abuse issues. The year was 1988, and I was fresh out of graduate school in the first months of my job as a psychotherapist. When I asked Jack what made him believe the government was tracking or surveilling him, he said a government official, who had taken a liking to him, had leaked it to him. He said that’s why he had to stay drunk, to numb his brain against the government’s mental torment. government was monitoring his every move, via satellite.
Jack (not his real name) talked about his passion for technology-related projects, and the discussion was fascinating-and plausible-until he told me that he believed the U.S. If he had indeed invented highly classified technologies, they’d obviously be concerned about his drinking, because he might divulge information while under the influence. I assumed that his bosses hoped he’d get the help he needed and be able to return to work. The contractor that had suspended him was paying for his therapy sessions with me and with his psychiatrist. He also told me he’d been put on suspension several months prior, due to excessive drinking. He went on to say that he’d invented some highly classified technology for a U.S. I asked for his level of education and he told me that he had a PhD in engineering. He was in his late 40s, with slightly unruly, longish hair, a buttoned-up shirt with a pen in the pocket, jeans, and well-made leather shoes. Jack arrived at my office looking like the Hollywood version of a science professor. Government Guinea Pigs?
